Why Grey Is the Perfect Fit for Bespoke Windows
When it comes to customisation, at Input Joinery, we make windows to your specification, including the colour! Grey is truly on trend and here to stay, so why not use it for your new Timber windows?
The New Neutral for your Windows
The use of grey within the home is a trend we’ve seen emerging over recent years but more recently in exterior finishes. A great way to utilise grey is through bespoke painted windows. Light, pastel greys bring a modern softness that works across all styles of architecture. Muted, pastel shades are especially popular and often described as the new neutral, blending seamlessly with both classic and modern palettes. If you’re looking to install new windows and want something different to the traditional white or natural timber look, why not go for grey?
Colour that Compliments
Introducing colour to the exterior of your home through painted windows is a fantastic way to enhance curb appeal whilst complementing traditional or contemporary design. Using grey beautifully goes with traditional materials like Cotswold stone, London red brick or flint, as well as modern materials such as cladding. For the interior, ironmongery hardware is available in a range of finishes including chrome, brass and black which all perfectly accompany a grey frame. At Input Joinery we produce a variety of window styles to fit your property, in keeping with the period and style. Explore our range of windows styles here.
Grey but also Green
Choosing grey windows isn’t just about the colour, but it’s also about making environmentally conscious decisions for your home. All our windows at Input Joinery are crafted from sustainably sourced timber, a renewable material with a lower carbon footprint than uPVC. Our windows are also fitted with argon-filled double glazing, which improves thermal efficiency, helping to control the temperature all year round as well as reducing energy usage.
The Power of High-Performance Paint
Although all our windows are crafted from beautiful timber, they need to be protected. Our range of high-performing paints shield your window frames whilst bringing colour to the inside and outside of your home. Grey has become a popular shade for our sash and casement windows and this durable paint finish is available across multiple window styles, including:
· Traditional casement windows
· Sash windows with concealed balance
· Sash windows with weights and lines
Our robust paint coating consists of 3 important layers: a protective primer, a waterproofing layer and a satin-finish final coat. This expert combination protects your window frames from harsh UV rays, maintaining the vibrant colour as well as a moisture barrier to prevent water penetration. This paint not only looks amazing, it helps your windows stand the test of time.
